I would delete that image if I were you. It's not clear enough there, but in other images it shows Selina is wearing the pearls during that scene. They were missing from the manifest. And the novelisation and screenplay mention them being worn by Selina.

For every man there is a cause which he would proudly die for. Defend the right to have a place for which he can belong to...and every man will fight with his bare hands in desperation...and shed his blood to stem the flood to barricade invasion.

The pearls are definitely there. Anne's pale complexion and the bad quality of the bootlegs just make it hard to see right now but it's there. It's no coincidence that her hair was pulled up in a ponytail and her dress exposes her neck. They want people to see those pearls.

It's not a big deal but something I noticed at the end is why would Bruce leave Blake cooridinates to the Bat-cave if it was just simply underneath Wayne Manor that Blake could've found it himself?

But then I thought it over and since the Manor would now be turned into an orphanage and the secret bookcase entrance sealed up for obvious reasons that Blake would need another way to access the cave.

Yeah. It's a way from Blake to find it without anybody else having a clue.

If people ask you why or how can James Blake become batman himself without training ...the answer is simple an it came from when Ra's Al Ghul said this to Bruce in the Batman Begins movie....""The training is nothing, the﻿ will is everything. The will to act."

i think thats a fairly accurate assessment ....

the cape and cowl (as well as the responsibilites) are now Blakes, and it will be up to him how to interpret being the new batman (unless he's gonna ebay the stuff)

Bruce doesn't trust the autopilot in a dense urban setting with less than 2 minutes left on the timer and the unwieldy core dangling from a cable.

"No autopilot," he urgently tells Selina.

This notion is reinforced as we see the Bat scraping the core along the street. It is a cumbersome object to tow.

As the core is hoisted to the air it crashes against a lightpost. (If the autopilot does not compensate for a tow-cable, under it's guidance the Bat might have flown too low and been tethered to that post...moments later: BOOM, The End).

Then Bruce blows a hole through a building to clear a speedier path for the Bat. Another benefit of manual operation.

I can see Batman not wanting to risk autopilot in a complex dowtown setting when time is so much of the essence.

Once in the clear, wide-open over the ocean, the Bat picking up momentum and speed in a straight shot, Bruce sets the autopilot and punches EJECT.

So what do all of you think? Does this sound about right or are there better ideas out there?

I love the bold simplicity of the reveal that Bruce survived at the end. However, all the stuff we do not see would have been equally dramatic and enthralling.

To me the dynamic issue is not Bruce surviving the blast, though. It's the choice he makes after this event. The choice to pass the torch and finally find his own happiness.

The actor is also quick to dispel any ambiguity about the film’s ending. Asked about the scene in which Alfred spies Bruce Wayne and Anne Hathaway’s Selina Kyle sitting together at a neighboring table in that restaurant — a shot that suggests that Alfred’s wish for Bruce has come true, that his former charge has found a companion to bring him some measure of inner peace and happiness, enabling him to finally leave behind his self-appointed role as Gotham’s unofficial protector — Caine is quite emphatic.

“They were there,” Caine said. “They were real. There was no imagination. They were real and he was with Anne, the cat lady, and I was happy ever after for him as I told him during the picture.”

TBH I'm still confused on why people think it was an imagination when there were so many signs leading up to that scene. So I'm glad he said that but I'm sure some will still find a way to contradict that.

A lot of people simply dont pay attention when watching movies (just reading some posts here on hype , its clear how people simply miss entire points stories make. And im not talking about the subtle ones).

There are also signs in that very shot.

Why would Alfred imagine Bruce being with Selina (also wearing the pearls) and him having the scar on his forehead from Bane breaking the cowl?

if im not mistaking i thought there was a rumor swirling around that wb is releasing a special edition dvd around 3rd quarter of this year. fingers crossed if it is true. and if it is true maybe there might be more light shed about said ending. but yeah selina is wearing the pearls and bruce most definitly has the scar, i mean isnt that enough evidence to any doubters still around???

i totally agree anno, im just curious if maybe there might be some commentary or special feature that might tell us there thoughts on the end. but trust me there are a lot of people who still think that alfred was hallucinating. they doubt the end for 2 reasons. 1 is the scenes before the explosion, they think bruce was still in the bat with 5 secs to go. 2 is some of these doubters/haters thought it was death in the cards for bruce. or they didnt want a happy ending. imo it was the most beautiful endings ive ever seen.
